Books -- reading and writing.
Home, cooking, the weather.
And whatever connections I can make between these chapters of my life.

Today's Book of the Day.
(Thanks to Random House for the review copy.)

Besides the stunningly beautiful paintings of Kadir Nelson which illustrate this oversized picture book, there's a CD of the speech included. A perfect book to share with your family or your classroom.
